So I took the plunge yesterday and purchased an X-Box 360. I have to say that I'm a little bit underimpressed ... just doesn't seem that much of a leap over PS2.

I don't have a 360, but this comment seems odd to me. I've never seen an xbox game that didn't look better than its PS2 version. So, if the 360 isn't a giant leap forward, I would hope that it's at least being compared to the original xbox.

Get Ghost Recon and Call of Duty for sure. Especially if you've got friends who come over to play - four player CoD and GR:AWF have been the only things that have made the 360 worth it for me and my crew.

NFL2k6 is terrible compared to the PS2 version, except as a showoff game. It looks great but the gameplay (especially repeat gameplay, i.e. season/etc) is terrible.

Fight Night is solid though.

You mean Madden right. They got sole rights to football. NK6 doesn't exist.

Tiger Woods.

Although, unless you're willing to devote untold weeks to making your golfer the #1 in the world, don't buy it. It is ADDICTIVE.

the new topspin is sick

and ghost recon was a ton better than I thought it would be

Meh, sorry. Madden 06. Pretty on the 360 but playability sucks compared to the PS2 version.

Is the new Tiger Woods any good?

I have the 04 and have played the 05 and they're both just WAY too easy. (note, I am also apparently a really good computer golfer).

Dids,

I have 06 for the PS2. It pwns.

Dids · #19 04-07-2006, 01:56 PM

Shajen,

How different is it from the other two games? 'Cause those were for the most part just ass-dog easy

(which is not to say that I didn't enjoy it a lot)

06 is really solid on both platforms. its absolutely beautiful on the 360. The ambient noise is the best - insects, airplanes in the distance, etc. really feels like you're out on the links.

I haven't extensively played TW06 on the 360 so I'm not sure how the career mode. My brother owns it, I do not.
